Thanks for the addition to the story! I can't tell you how often I have to go back and forth to the hardware store because I purchased the wrong gasket, wire, nut, flange, etc.
There are so many things to consider when dealing with the wiring in a house that I refuse to tie anything into the main box (it's illegal in my city anyway) until an inspector comes and makes sure that I won't burn my house down! 😏

This is why I miss the old style stores so much. Where you had a person behind the counter who knew what you needed and gave you the right stuff and an explanation on how to do the job right.
Yeah, it's a different age. When I was a kid, there would be somebody at the hardware store who actually cared if you burned down your house.
